Silence fills the atmosphere as I drive around Los Angeles with Jimin on my side. He only says a word when I need to turn in a specific direction.

I can't believe Hoseok forced us to be together when he already know that something between us is awkward.

I know Hoseok knows about something. The way he said that he's doing this for Jimin made me sure.

"Turn left." He said in an empty tone. But before he can even inform me I already surpassed the direction. "Why do you have to be so stupid?" He says under his breath and I found myself stopping at a no parking place.

"If you're that mad at me, then you should've brought your convertible car." I mock him. He's turning back into the man I fought with at the resort.

I kinda like the Jimin that I had late brunch with inside his house. The one who offered his handkerchief and shirt so that I'll stay protected under the heat of the sun that day.

That day.

That day feels so ethereal, everything was at the wrong place but it feels nice, I was really happy that day and it scares me because Jimin might be the reason why I'm happy that time.

That day was almost flawless, but nothing's ever perfect.

If he didn't start to speak about Ryan and I's relationship, that day must've been really memorable to me. Feeling the cold breeze of the wind, the smell of saltwater and the sound of silence as I stare at the beautiful sky, would be a moment to remember.

That day did become a memorable one, in a bad way. I hate how everything twisted that day.

Now, we're back to square one.

"Then you should have backed out when Hoseok invited you to his party." He spits and leans on his seat without even sparing me a glance.

"I owe him something, that's why. Believe me, I don't want to come and drive you all the way there." My grip tightens at the steering wheel as I contain my anger.

He didn't say anything back, instead, he unlocks the door on his side and he jumps out of my car.

"Go and drive back home! Daddy must be finding you." He provokes and I gave him a jersey salute.

Instead of following what he said I reverse around the road and turn to my right where Jimin points at earlier.

When I look at the rearview mirror, he's standing still at the pavement of the sidewalk.

If I don't see any signs of blue water here, then I'll turn back and return home.

Just a few meters from Jimin and I's argument spot earlier, a clear view of the sea is visible at my right side and there's the yacht, not just a yacht but a mega-yacht berthed near a dock.

The moon is shining brightly and its reflection from the water makes the whole scenery very beautiful.

From the outside view, the colorful lights are shimmering endlessly from the yacht. The loud music is very audible inside my car as I search for a parking spot.

Lana must be having the best time of her life inside.

As soon as I parked my car outside I hopped off and make my way at the dock.

Some people are dancing like there's no tomorrow at the deck, some are holding empty, full, or a half bottle of beers here at the dock.

This boat is like a giant, I'm slightly afraid to enter because I'm too intimidated by its size, but it seems interesting and I thought that this might be the first and last opportunity for me to experience riding a yacht so I went for it.
